About the Item

Farhad Nikfam (b. 1987) is an Iranian painter raised at the crossroads of post-soviet, south Caucasian and Persian cultures yet influenced by a romanticized image of western world of the 90's and 2000’s, the artist discovers and explores new worlds, where all of these coexist. His paintings depict the space where the artist managed to unite the objective reality and his fantasies - whether it be his own design of a beer bottle he would prefer to drink from or of an armchair he would like to sit on or fanciful scenarios where the only portal for a mermaid to escape an apartment building could be a toilet bowl. Numerous plots embedded in each of the recent paintings are united by a common form - a shelf in a mobile phone store or a facade of a building, or a bouquet, but are autonomous per se. Inspired by the freedom of primitivism, as well as by industrial design (his first field of studies), Farhad creates new forms of daily life - angular and naive at the same time. The eye-catching sharpness and directness of lines are combined with the straightforward childlike perception, love for bright colors and non-ergonomic technology objects from the 90s. In his own words, the artist should live life to the fullest to be able to tell his own story.

Untitled
By Peter Marks
Located in Fairlawn, OH
Untitled Photo collage, c. 2005 Unsigned Provenance: Estate of the Artist Condition: Excellent Image size: 15 1/4 x 19 1/2 inches Sheet size: 19 1/4 x 24 1/4 inches Peter Marks (1935 -2010) Peter Marks was born in New York City on January 18, 1935. A lifetime New Yorker, Marks graduated from the High School of Music and Art in 1952 and Amherst College in 1956. After a brief stint as a graphic designer in publishing, Marks became a private art dealer and opened his gallery Peter Marks Works of Art, Inc. in 1960. During this time he specialized in the sale of Southeast Asian and Islamic antiquities and made many contributions to the field both as a dealer and an advocate of his profession. Above all, Marks was motivated by a strong desire to find great art and make it available to large audiences. After retiring from art dealing in 2002, Marks transformed his Manhattan gallery space into a studio where he drew prolifically and painted large non-objective canvasses. This time in his studio was a happy one for Marks, who viewed this period of his life not as retirement, but rather fulfillment, a fact that is confirmed by passionate artistic output in the years leading up to his passing in 2010. In 2012, Thomas French...
